The chairman of the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Public Accounts, Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, has called on the incoming government of General Muhammadu Buhari to sanction the global renowned auditing firm, PriceWaterCoopers (PwC), for allegedly carrying out a shoddy forensic audit on the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) regarding the alleged missing $20 billion from the corporation’s coffers.

The committee chairman also called on the incoming government to, with immediate effect, suspend PwC from carrying out any further financial audit or investigation on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria or any of its agencies.

Adeola, who made this statement when he spoke to journalists on the PwC’s report said that the firm did not actually carry out full audit of the NNPC accounts, adding that the House Committee on Public Accounts had long ago noticed something fishy in the PwC report as the said report averred that the only amount of money that the NNPC ought to remit was just $1.485 billion.
